"This is a film that every responsible person should see. It is not an educational film alone, but an inspirational one.” - Frank Manchel, Film critic and historian, Professor Emeritus, The University of Vermont

"I loved the intimacy of being invited into the world of these families and getting a sense of what it must be like to live with a child with autism. I definitely walked away having a greater appreciation of the struggles that families face, the great love and passion propelling parents to find help, answers, along with the heartbreak and frustrations."-Rita Murphy, author, Random House Children's Books
